Have you checked out this video from 3Blue1Brown that talks bit about transformers?

I personally would rather recommend people to just look at these architectural diagrams [0] and try to understand them. There is the caveat that they do not show how attention works. For that you need to understand softmax(QK^T)V and multi head attention being a repetition of this multiple times. GQA, MHA, etc just messes around with reusing Q or K or V in clever ways.

I've seen it but I don't believe I've watched it all the way through. I will now


There's also various videos by Welch Labs that are very good. -- https://www.youtube.com/@WelchLabsVideo/videos


Meanwhile: Nearly half of all code generated by AI found to contain security flaws - even big LLMs affected

Now do Junior Devs...


In my experience, junior devs are actually better about this because they haven't been ground down by years of corporate bullshit and shellacking whenever they bring up security holes or issues. Some of them will be a bit over eager and miss obvious stuff but unlike LLMs you can actually train them to be better about it.


Yeah, to be honest I agree. I've worked with senior people who couldn't give a crap, "it works" is the only barrier to shipping it.

I've also worked with juniors who are technically much better than most of the senior people around them.


Are most junior devs honestly any better? In my experience no.


If there are no devs, who finds the junior bugs?


All devs


All senior devs are now junior devs, that’s why we stopped hiring juniors.

Give me them downvotes all you want but I’m not the “senior” turning in slop Llm code.


I believe the Amiga was fine for more than just games and word processing. It was also used in movie and tv show productions [1]

When I want to show people what an intro is and tell them a bit about the demoscene, I usually show them the intro Elevated, which won the PC 4k compo at Breakpoint 2009. For me it really shows the talent of Iq and the other people who created it. It’s truly amazing what can be done in just 4 kilobyte!

Elevated by Rgba & TBC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jB0vBmiTr6o

Iq's slides on the Elevated intro: https://iquilezles.org/articles/function2009/function2009.pd...

Sourcecode: https://files.scene.org/view/resources/code/sources/rgba_tbc...


He also ported Elevated to ShaderToy so you can fiddle with the code in realtime.

If anyone's interested in seeing more 4kb demos, check out the recently released Hexer by LJ.

Maybe this can help. The image in the video is the one Steffest won the Oldskool Graphics Compo with at Revision 2025

I assume if you get a positive response you will want to speak with doctor about it


If the thermometer says 39 C/102 F I will want to speak with a doctor about it but that doesn't mean I want to go to the hospital every time I want my temperature checked.

I suspect it has a lot more to do with these lines:

> medical photographers taking photos of suspicious moles and lesions

I.e. it might not be ready enough or validated for an average person snapping their own photo and:

> The images are then transferred to a desktop computer for greater analysis before the tool determines the result

There is more to it than the phone app and it may not be packaged in a way that is currently worthwhile to distribute to home users.

Both of these (and other things) may change with time of course.


Not sure if we are following the same demoparties but I still see plenty of great demos, intros, music, etc. being released. I do see new compos being add liked Modern GFX, Animations, Photo, and Videos but I dont feel that deminish the creativity of the Demoscene.

On a side note, I am looking forward to this year Revision demoparty.

That's a Hacker News post of a reposting of another blog post about a bachelor thesis. Not sure what all the indirection adds.


It seems Nathan Myhrvold also made a TED talk about it.
